At our schools, we provide unique, supportive, and respectful environments that nurture the spirit of your child. With over 40 years of combined experience and dreams, we founded these schools to build peaceful learning communities for children and adults. The main objectives of our schools are to provide a carefully planned, stimulating environment which will help children develop within themselves the foundational habits, attitudes, skills, and ideas which are essential for a lifetime of creative thinking and learning. When engaged in well-structured tasks, the students experience a deep inner satisfaction which leaves them with an overall positive attitude toward learning. We embrace the philosophy put forth by Dr. Maria Montessori and believe with consistent, authentic methodology, we are able to cultivate a meaningful and rewarding school experience for your child. A Montessori education provides the necessary ingredients that meet and exceed the academic, social, emotional, spiritual, and academic challenges of early childhood. Skills of independence, self-discipline, problem-solving and a secure foundation of early academic knowledge develop spontaneously within a beautiful, calm, and loving classroom environment. Our unique settings change ordinary classroom experiences to collaborative communities filled with curiosity and a lifelong love of learning. We understand that your child’s education is centered in his family life. Active partnering through parent education events, lectures, conferences, special holiday events, and parent-child field trips are greatly encouraged. We foster a supportive environment which not only nurtures the spirit of your child but endeavors to facilitate an active partnership between school and home. We are here to provide support, education, and encouragement to help you meet your family’s goals.

Hi Parents!! Before beginning this adventure I was a nanny. (Live-in and live-out.) I was a nanny for 17 years before watching children at my home. I have worked as a nanny for families with 4 children, and I also have twin experience! They were 4 weeks old when I started and were 2 1/2 when they went into day care. I am a stay-at-home Mom who watches a couple of kids at our place. My child is in 5th grade. I currently watch a 4 year old boy 4 days a week. I am looking to add a baby or a toddler (1 year to 2 1/2 years old) to our group, full time is preferred. Our morning consists of playing. We have no shortage of toys whatsoever! We go outside when the weather allows, sing songs, blow bubbles, play puzzles and build towers with blocks for starters! The ABC song is among our favorite right now! We've also been known to take a picnic to the park and find story times at our local library. We love being social! Lunch is around 11:30 a.m., with nap to follow around 12:30 p.m. Snack and more play time follows! My typical hours are 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. I am more than willing to work with you on both of those times. My rates BEGIN at $50 a day, the final rate depends on hours needed. I look forward to speaking with you!

Children five months or five years of age have already embarked on a journey from which they are learning great lessons, those that are traditionally academic and those that will shape their character. At Alta Vista We help our students to learn and understand the world, so that one day they'll know how to make it a better place for themselves and others. We emphasize an academic curriculum that focuses on how we learn and not what we learn to develop a lifelong love for learning and the skills to do so. We foster independence, self-direction, and responsibility to empower them to follow the life of their own choosing. We model collaboration, cooperation and helpfulness to inspire them to live a life of service and peace. Following authentic Montessori practices, our classes are mixed-aged, which is the ideal setting for peer teaching, role modeling, honing leadership, and building a strong sense of community. Our experienced teachers engage the children in specially prepared classrooms using a stimulating curriculum at each level. Everything in the classroom is designed to meet the developmental needs and interests of the children. There is no limit to what children can learn, and they are able to advance through the curriculum as quickly as they are ready, without being limited by the progress of their peers. Our Montessori materials have been researched and scientifically developed as well as tested in classrooms for over 100 years all over the world. Our teachers take great care in preparing the environment; materials are arranged sequentially, children have comfortable work space, and there is freedom of physical movement. We offer an accredited Montessori School as well as daycare for ages 6 weeks to 6 years. Part-time and full-time schedules available. We invite you to visit our beautiful school!
